Poem: Tick Tock

Tick Tock
By: Joi Maree Flowers

Tick tock
Tick tock

The walking man steps halt
But the clock doesn't stop

Tick tock
Tick tock

A day lost behind time
Too far ahead now to be caught

Tick tock
Tick tock

A thought runs across the mind
A wonder of where the new direction to find

Tick tock
Tick tock

Fast forward
Does the time move

Even when life stands still
Sunrise after
Sunset after
Sunrise after
After

Fast forward
Does the time move

Tick tock
Tick tock

The choice

Stand still
Or
Forward move

Tick
Tock
Tick
Tock
     Tick......
